Coventry residents have reacted to the news the Government has suggested cutting the number of fast trains between the city and London.

It is understood the move is being deliberated in a bid to speed up journey times between the capital and Birmingham.

Plans to chop the number of long-distance services that stop at “intermediate” stations such as Coventry and Rugby are revealed in a government consultation on the future of the West Coast Main Line.

It is another potential blow to the city which is already set to be bypassed by the controversial multi-billion pound HS2 project which will build a new high-speed line through Warwickshire to link London to Birmingham and the north of England.

Coventry residents had their say on the Telegraph's social media pages, and you can view their thoughts by watching the video above.
